README

This extension enables a frontend user to add ext:news-records. Beside adding content for the normal text fields like title, teaser, bodytext it is also possible to upload an image and a file download as well as selecting a category.

Templates are ready to use with the bootstrap framework and icons will be shown, if you have Font Awesome icon set included in your project. Validation of input is done in the frontend, rich text editing enabled for the textarea and a date picker in place for the archive date.
